Marvin said:The moments of genius were memorable, and he kept the fans spirits up, but he was a floored genius.
We got moments out of him, and I mean just moments, by getting the rest of the team to play for him. Rarely did he control a game. He'd be anonymous for 25 minutes, then go on a thrilling run - if you were lucky
I don't agree with you, but let's say you are right........he went on more thrilling runs, scored more briliant goals and controlled more games than any other player at Manchester City from 1995-1998.
That's why he was so loved. He was a shining Caramac wrapper amongst a big pile of dog shit.
Of course he was a flawed genius. Again, you'll find that they make up 99% of all cult heroes in football, and if he was an actual genius, he wouldn't have been playing for us.
